Fourth of July Festivities

7/9/2020- Last Saturday the crew celebrated the holiday by hosting the 12th annual Sawbill Dragon Boat Races. Six teams of three paddlers packed into a Wenonah Minnesota II raced from the Forest Service dock back to the landing. With lightning illuminating the treeline in the distance, the teams were extra eager to get back to the landing before the storm blew overhead. Each team paddled as hard as possible for the half mile race but in the end it was Dan, Paul, and Emma who emerged victorious to take home the coveted Golden Paddle. Special thanks to all the campers who cheered from the shore and welcomed us back across the finish line!

Of Course no race would be complete without flipping the canoe.
